Facing the adversity

I’m from Mexico, and I loved to draw since I have memory, I used to draw cartoons more often, but then I got more interested in realism as I grow up, I’m 21 years old now and I am desperately chasing perfection.

I would like to make art my profession, I dreaming to become an excellent painter and also write and illustrate a comic book which is my childhood dream which also I keep daydreaming so often.

Sultan

I’m an Architectural draftsman whose first love is drawing and working as an Expatriate here in Middle East. I know how to draw but not that really good. My life here as a foreign worker is simply revolves around my office and to my tiny bachelor’s room.

Ones I saw a video from Drawing Academy that made me think that I can improve my drawing skills to a professional level. Then I started to do some research, reading articles and watching some video tutorials on YouTube. During this period I saw the progress of my skills, but still I know that there are lots of things to learn and I think I lack basic foundations that’s why some of my work are by luck and no consistency and I’m still hungry for knowledge especially when I started to see some academic drawings done by the old masters from Renaissance period and from Russian and Chinese artist.

Shape of hope

I am a young at heart, a simple soul. The world is what you believe it is. And it’s really just love that makes the world go round. I teach maths and dramatic arts. I am a freelance writer who didn’t fall out of love with words, but I have discovered the magic of paint, the creativity of colour, shapes and tones.

The Drawing Academy sounds like the perfect place to start learning techniques and skills…

The Troubled Artist

My name is Frankie Stockman. I am a mother, wife, painter and Legal office Manager.

Right now I am needing to work to help support our large family and so I try to work on art on the weekends or late at night. If I had it my way, I would be a full time artist.

My favorite part of an art project is the initial drawing. However, I find my challenge is that I have a very hard time drawing and seeing the right perspective in the human face, figure and most architecture. So I always feel that my drawings and paintings are flat and a bit lifeless. I know that if I can learn to see perspective better, my drawings and paintings will come alive!

A Self-taught Art Teacher’s Dilemma

I’m C.nick, I’m in my 20s and just this year I got a job teaching art. I’m very excited that I get to do what I love and share that love and excitement with others.

Make a dream come true!

As a fifty-three-year-old man, I have always had a dream. My dream is the dream of learning to draw, like the masters. As a self-taught artist, I can draw simple and fun works of art, but nothing complicated or technically correct. My dream is to draw properly.

I live in Provo, Utah, USA. I am currently unemployed, and I enjoy drawing in my spare time. I have hopes of one day being an artist who is worthy of working. I love art. I believe that a picture can tell more than a story, and I love art that says something to the beholder. Each picture I draw has a story or meaning behind it…
